  Depends on if the merchant acquirer cares about CVV miss matches. We're passing CVV2 to you, encoding it might cause issues

  Magstripes are still a thing? Here they are like landline numbers or fax machines: legacy hangover.

  The thing I wasn't sure about was whether the stripe includes data other than the number/exp/cvv

  ohhhh, @final is a virtual credit card ... sure - all of the data is stored in 2 tracks following a well known format

  technically there is a "discretional data" field on track 2 of the mag stripe - but the content varies between brands
